Noble Frequency Response

Hello,
Does anyone have or know where to find frequency response sweeps of the Noble preamp/DI at various settings?

I have googled with no success thus far. The only thing I found is a suggested 10-band EQ setting for a single setting.

Thanks,
John
 
It’s not remotely scooped, it's nice and flat as the lord intended it to be. Noble clearly advertises a roughly 700Hz “cut” effect when both EQs are up high enough—story checks out—and a glorious noise it makes, too. But any shelf EQ will have that effect. Any accusations of #noblesoscooped is nonsense.

(EDITED) Here's a more accurate measurement than the homespun one I put up earlier. The red is flat, blue is bass and treble at noon, creating the 700Hz dip, and the green is the HPF switch engaged.
